    Posting links to web videos is soooooooo yesterday.

    Funny thing is, some people think that, without Net Neutrality, web videos are soooooooo not going to be freely available during our fast approaching tomorrows.

    I am only posting this link because a featured 'Yahoo! video' link appeared 30 minutes ago on the Yahoo! front page that produced a 'video no longer available' message. So I hunted down the original on our still wonderfully neutral Net.

    Maybe that isn't the only reason. Tron Guy is in it 0.o, plus he speaks in his own mini vid on the site.

    edit: Its back up and working on Yahoo!

    Game Show Network did a thing where they counted down the top 50 Game Shows of all time. Tonight's installment included an episode of To Tell the Truth where the first segment was about a Con Artist...

    Isn't that kind of Ironic?

    I think I know. If it's indeed what I'm thinking... then kuemp, you horndog! But if you are indeed refering to *those* fruits, then count them as the only kind I like. I prefer 'em natural, though.

    It isn't. :) Should I say? Nah, the mystery will linger.

    I didn't win 2nd place. :( This tiny spurt of, dare I say, hope pops her maniacal self out to remind me - You could get one of the dolls and/or the monkey! Saturday (when it's posted that I didn't win anything and am a cr@p, hack writer), I will be freaking out majorly and in even more of a depressive state than I am now.

    Be glad you don't live with me.

    OI! Quit puttin' words in our mouths! :lol:

    For one, it's definitely not FINE here; it's actually raining quite heavy (and not the usual morose drizzle that lingers around for a few depressing weeks) so I gotta beg a lift from my folks...then deal with the strings thusly attached. :skeptic:

    Game addicts only. If you are not a game addict please don't pay any attention to this post.

    What addiction?

    Why is the world waking up to this now?
    (from http://www.mmogchart.com )

    So whats it to you how I spend my time?

    The ill-founded, verbose, off-topic and pedantic garbage that filled the two threads that valiantly tried to broach this subject in the Alley lately was not unexpected since afterall, if this stuff was important we would know all about it already, right?

    It won't catch me out, right?

    Bloody Runescape and eRose and Eve and DDO: Stormreach.

    If you read enough stories at the eqdailygrind site you will know it was not the games fault, but rather that I went into the MMORPG worlds feeling down and never reached the usual point of game completion where I felt compelled to get up again (and I enjoyed every minute of it).

    The problem eventually hit home when those selfish people known as my friends and family had missed my company to such an extent that they started demanding more of my time (the swines).

    So no more MMOs. If the video posted above is real then that guy is braver than I am to post it on the web. Virtually the same thing happened to me, without the camera. And the stripping.

    By the way, the social aspect of this board is why many people return to it year in and year out. The social pull of MMOs is many times greater, so if you are addicted to Sorcerers.net be careful out there, in whichever out-there you chose.

    (If you are not a game addict, because game addicts are weak-willed and you are stong willed and great and uber and do sports too, then please feel free to create a thread about why you are great and call it something like 'Why I am great and not addicted' and I will be able to give it all the attention it deserves.)

    Given: Two 1 L bottles, one filled with shampoo and the other with conditioner, each fitted by the manufacturer with a pump-top that dispenses a reasonably consistent amount of product (without doing serious measurements and statistical annalyses, that is; also, the amount of shampoo seems about the same as the amount of conditioner).

    Situation: Each shampooing uses two pumps of shampoo and one of conditioner

    Question: Why is the conditioner bottle empty first?!?!?!

    I thought I'd won something from an Ocean Master for my story in YPP because one of my pirates had a rat as a pet. I realized this pirate didn't even post a story! You can fork over big bucks 100 dubs/100k poe for an elephant if you want; I'm sticking with the bilger's friend. :aww:
